Rumor has it that there will be a few helicopters pushing 185-190mph at IRCHA. Crazy!!!

You must be kidding. I can't even imagine seeing a heli pass by at that speed, and the sound! Funny thing is in a few years we will talk about 200 mph plus.

Wow, 190 is crazy to think. The speed record for full scale heli is 302 mph.

Can you imagine the carnage if one of those comes apart in flight or if it hits the ground.  Smokin Hole for sure. It will indeed be impressive to see this in person and even more interesting to see what they did overall to Achieve these speeds.

I just did. I'm going with a 12s set up. Not expecting much because I am going to be using the same electronics as I use for sport flying.
